I have now joined the Hindu WikiProject. If you have any questions, please ask me. Happy editing! — S .D. ¿п? 23:24, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for the warm welcome! I'll help anyway I can, just notify me! By the way, great work over there at the Hinduism Portal! Cheers! S .D. ¿п? § 01:54, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
Sorry for the late reply, I noticed it, then...forgot. Wikipedia's been pretty good lately, I'm still a little stressed from the Mario Party edit war, but not as much. What do you think of my work at List of Luigi's Mansion ghosts? I removed a lot of walkthroughish stuff from it, and changed it to a table format (though I didn't do nearly as good a job as you did on List of Stratocaster players). Yep, that's pretty much it. How are you? – Llama man 00:39, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
I saw that you removed reference to the Indo -European sound laws from the Hinduism page. I personally agree that that detail is unnecessary for the article. However the inclusion of the phrase does serve a "defensive" purpose in that we can use it to ward of people who want to either (1) want to expand on the s-> h shift in this article itself or (2) want to introduce their own favorite theory (see this which is periodically added to the Hindu article.) So it may be better to leave the sentence in, though perhaps as a footnote. What do you think ? Abecedare 03:30, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
What do you mean by column? If you are referring to the quotes, I say we should post a message on the talk page. I think either the quotes have to go, or the paraphrasing of the quotes made above has to go. Gizza Chat © 03:30, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
Nn...I feel like talking right now, I feel bored :P Hmm... I saw your User:Arjun01/Adminship page, and I saw my name there! Are you really looking at my edits closely? The pressure is on now...:) But really, that's a really cool sub-page ya got there. Oh, and great news! School's been cancelled here today and tomorrow because of cold weather. They told us yesterday. Instead of being here on Wikipedia, I've been sleeping all morning, then coming here at night (most if not all night). Heh heh. Well, about the List of Stratocaster players, I'm afraid I've run out of books to use as references. I'm hitting the 'net, but I can't find anything :( So I've done what I could. Hope it's okay! Now I'm starting to add cites to the Holocaust article. I checked out a big, 600 page book on the Holocaust. Whew. Not the best pictures to put up for FPC. Eww. Well, I guess that's that. Oh, and you don't mind me posting such large messages like this do you? I can't help talking with a great friend, :) Cheers!

Thank you so much for your compliment! But no isn't a reference to the Gita :) Da is just the way Indians say "the". Gizza is one of the 300 nicknames I have, had or will get in my current life. It is based on my real name, Girik. There are variations like Gizzo, Giz and some people add titles to like Sir Gizzo or Lord Gizmo!
My real name Girik is a variant of Giri which means mountain. Adding the k makes it a name of Shivji. Girik is a fairly rare name even in India. Giri and Girish (comes from Giri + Ish[vara]) are by far more well known names. The closest title of Krishna with my name is "Giridhar" (lifter of mountain). In one story, Krishna lifts a mountain (I don't actually remember the story!). It is interesting that Krishna is called that because I think the story of Hanuman lifting the mountain to find the medicine which will cure Lakshman is more famous. One of my favourite bhajans has the word Giridhar in its name (again I don't remember properly!). Om Girikāya namaḥ lol. Gizza Chat © 04:20, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
Much of the article is actually a translation from the Italian Wikipedia. It is an FA on Italian Wiki and Lacatosias gratefully translated the article. I translated one of the sections -Iconography (I don't study Italian anymore). I agree with you, it is one the better Hinduism articles on Wikipedia. How did you find out? Did you check the history? Gizza Chat © 04:46, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
That's an amazing story!...it proves once again that Hinduism is truly universal and not confined to a certain people or geographical location. God truly transcends organized religion, race divisions, lanquage, labels, etc.,etc....I'm also amazed at the contributions that you've made to the Hinduism Project, your improvements to the Hinduism Portal page were well over due. That page is extremely important as it's the first impression many people will have about Hinduism. With your leadership on that effort you have effected the views of thousands apon thousands of people reqarding Hinduism. And also while I'm throwing around compliments...:)let me add that the accomplishments you've made in music according to your user page, proves also that you are truly gifted by God my friend. (did you see the Barnstar I left a few days ago on your awards page?)( I know now I should have placed it in the talk page, I'm NEW!) LeMaster 14:11, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

Arjun, I would like to notify you that your user page links to Seadog.M.S, such as talk and email. Could you fix those? Cheers! S .D. ¿п? § 19:48, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
Hey Arjun. Yes, you may remove vandal reports where you notice that they've not been warned properly and/or are not active for some time. In fact, your help is appreciated. Backlogs there are often full of bad reports. :-) I've seen other non-admin users doing it. Regards,-- Hús ö nd 03:55, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

Sorry for the unscheduled wikibreak. I was wondering, when I came back, if anyone noticed. Yes, you have told me about your name change, but that's okay. What's going on for you? -- Gray Porpoise Your wish is my command! 20:23, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
